Sustainability

The world is evolving, the population is growing, the climate is changing, natural resources are becoming scarce and will even run out someday in the future – and those are just a few of the key areas of concern.

In accordance with our company policy, we understand ‘sustainable management’ as the careful handling of ecological resources to protect the environment and society.

At NATECO2 it’s all about CO2 – the green solvent. The CO2 we use is gained from a chemical process (hydrogen production) as a by-product, and is therefore considered “neutral” concerning the eco-balance. NATECO2’s patented extraction technology ensures its safe and effective application. Due to ongoing improvements in production and well-thought-out recycling processes, only minor losses of CO2 prevail. Additionally, this proprietary high pressure technique enables us to omit organic solvents, which are often classified as hazardous and toxic and cause enormous problems and costs when dealing with their environmentally-friendly disposal. Besides this, there is no contamination of the products, so that they can be used right away in the appropriate field of application.

The NATECO2 quality management team meets regularly to continuously make improvements concerning waste management and energy consumption. Most of the employees were brought up in farming families and are aware that only a healthy environment allows good and sustainable harvests.

In the future NATECO2 will make use of more energy sources that are based on renewable raw materials. Furthermore, packaging material will be reduced and spent material will be used for ecological energy generation.
